Remote control
3
Depending on the equipment of the
vehicle, one of the remote controls
depicted on this page will be used.
The remote control is integrated in the key.
Used to operate:
zCentral locking system 3,
zmechanical anti-theft locking system 3,
zanti-theft alarm system 3.
On vehicles with electronic windows 3, the
windows can be closed from the outside

The remote control has a range of approx.
5 metres. This range can be affected by
outside influences. Aim the remote control
at the vehicle to operate. The hazard
warning lamps flash to confirm remote
control operation.
Handle the remote control with care,
protect it from moisture and high
temperatures and avoid unnecessary
operation. Fault
If the central locking system cannot be
operated with the remote control, it may be
due to the following:
zRange exceeded.
zBattery voltage of the radio remote
control too low, change battery.
zFrequent, repeated operation of the
remote control outside the reception
range of the vehicle (e.g. too far from
vehicle, remote control is then no longer
recognised). Synchronise the remote
control.
zIf the central locking system is
overloaded as a result of repeated
operation at short intervals. The power
supply is cut off for a brief period.
zInterference from higher-power radio
waves from other sources.
